No, its the stainless.

If you got it for $10.00 You got some smoking deal.

They pop up on eBay for $12-16 sometimes.

A few years ago they were on eBay for $6.99 all day long. I should have bought a dozen.

So was the cigar ever salvaged from the trash and smoked?

Please, it's more exciting than the finale of The Sopranos.

@icehog3 Since you asked, here's a photo of my handiwork for y'all. I managed to clip the shattered head and now I have a morning nub smoke. Gonna smoke this after breakfast.

Thanks for encouraging me to salvage it. At least now I get a little enjoyment from the poor thing.

And here's a pic of my cutter for @SurfnSafari.

Not that big! The cigar was just a robusto, turned into a mini robusto, LOL.

You must have the resin one, as the stainless steel ones are like 18 - 20 bucks.

My CC SS cutter was $20 with a lifetime guarantee. It's the one with the "brake" on it. Works on flat ends , plus good for torpedoes.

I’ve got one of those under a different brand name. Same exact blades. Thing was awesome for a few sticks and then went to crap. It started busting caps and cutting terrible. Got to looking at the blade edges and noticed it had developed a metal burr.

Could be worse. A couple years back I was using a cutter with two holes and mistakenly had my finger in one of the holes when I went the cut the cigar. My finger caught the blade first and the blade won. That was the last day I ever used a cheap plastic cutter.

Damn. Now I'm debating whether I should invest in a new cutter. I can't afford to bust another quality stick.

Fuck! What happened? Are you serious? Did you lose part of a finger?

Fortunately I felt it cutting into my finger before that happened. Just a nice deep slice. Best part was this happened while I was at a new shop I'd never smoked at before.

I have been happily using a Cuban Crafters Perfect Cutter for 4 years and it was used when I got it. New ones are $10 and they work well and are built to last.

Can't echo this one enough....very well made and a perfect cut all the time...don't waste your money on a more expensive cutter. I have had mine for years and it works great.

I finally picked one of these up back in September, and love it.

 

[Cigary43]

No. I tossed it. The whole head was shattered.

Could have pretended it was a large RG cigar and smoked it from the foot....JMO.

I dug it from the trash, chopped off the shattered head, and had a nice short mini smoke. (See photo attached to this thread) Still lost money though.

 

[Coincrazed]

Well, I guess you guys were right. It IS the cutter. I cut another stick today with it, and even after I moistened the cap before cutting and carefully lined up the blades, I very nearly mangled another stick. Thankfully i am purchasing a quality cutter from a very gracious bolt next week.
